About my mother
http://miriamsideas.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ about-my-mother.html
Since Mother's Day is coming, I thought I would reminisce about my mother. I've written about mother's law practice elsewhere. Now I want to mention another idiosyncracy of hers. Mother hated bad news--no, she didn't believe in bad news, and felt that if she didn't share it, it didn't count. So if anything bad happened, she never told me. This was particularly annoying, as I lived out of town, and depended on her to keep me up to date on family news. Once I was visiting her, and noticed that my cousin Bernie's wife was not present on a family occasion. Mother had to admit that Noreen and Bernie were getting divorced.
